My mac crashed. Now I want to transfer my old iPod files and new iPhone files to my new Mac. How?

When I hook up my old iPod and new iPhone the suggested method is for iTunes files I paid. But I have hundreds of songs from CD. Do I have to do that again? Is there a seamless method to easily transfer? I already lost some pictures.

I don’t think the tools mentioned before would be of any help to you as you are a Mac User. CopyTrans and Media widget are windows ONLY softwares.
That said you are more lucky. There is a free tool available for Mac that can restore Music/Movies/Photos from your iPod. Try Senuti [ http://www.fadingred.org/senuti/ ]. Don’t forget to read this web page before you proceed : [ http://code.google.com/p/senuti/wiki/QuickStart ]. If you sync your iPod with an empty iTunes, songs might be erased from your iPod too.
If the songs you lost were purchased from iTunes Store, go to the link : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/store/lostmusic/
Apple will send you back the lost music
this happend to me before
all u do is download a free trail of
a program called CopyTrans
it will save all your files from ipod/iphone to your computer and then u drop that folder into your new itunes
good luck!
MEDIA WIDGET! this happened to me just last week and i was sooo upset so i d/l the free trial of media widget; it said it would only do 10 songs at a time so i gave up and exited, but then the next day i tried again and it said "scanning" and i thought it was just scanning all my songs on my ipod touch, but it actually imported them directly into itunes somehow. It took like 2 hours for 3300 songs. I didn’t have to deal w/ folders at all.
